I've been to a facility lately to discuss things about IPR. On the grounds are nice ornamental plants that caught my attention. However, i am so very in a hurry because i still have to go home and it is already past noon. So no matter how attractive the plants are, no matter how i wanted to take more photos, i only had a few minutes for those very near the walkway. I didn't even have the time to even change a lens. So these are just some of them, mostly herbs.

Thai basil

sweet basil

purple 'alugbati' or Basella rubra

am not sure what onion species this is (thanks Photo Cache for identifying it as fennel)

When this arbor is already filled by the climbing 'alugbati', both green and purple, i am sure it makes this herbs area very beautiful. A 'bahay kubo' or nipa hut is a conducive sitting area at the back for small discussions or a cup of coffee. With our hot sun's rays here in the country, it will definitely cover us from intense heat, and provide a good atmosphere to linger around.

WELCOME!
